13 Best Wedding-Themed Films

1) MY BIG FAT GREEK WEDDING

Director: Joel Zwick
Actors: Nia Vardolas, John Corbett, Lainie Kazan,
Michael Constantine, Andrea Martin, Louis Mandylor, Gia Carides
Year: 2002

Nia Vardolas based this film on her play (of the same name) and also on her real life (she is married to "Cougar Town" Latino actor Ian Gomez). The laughs come a mile a minute in this hilarious portrayal of a Greek-American family planning a wedding for the daughter they had all assumed would be an old maid. Andrea Martin is phenomenal as Aunt Voula. "You don't eat no meat? That's alright, I make lamb."


Honorable Mention:
Wedding Crashers
Runaway Bride
The Wedding Date
Corpse Bride
Rachel Getting Married
Four Weddings and a Funeral
The Proposal
Sweet Home Alabama
